After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

More than ten days have passed since Shen Ruoyan woke up. Her body has recovered a lot, but her mood is getting lower day by day.

Lu Yan was never found.

She told her father the truth and asked Master Shen to quickly send people to search for the incident on the mountain top, but so many days had passed and there was no news at all.

A dazzling star rising in the court suddenly fell.

Whenever Lu Yan is mentioned, everyone shakes their head and sighs.

Standing in the empty general's mansion, Shen Ruoyan had a lot to say to Lu Yan, but it was too late. The person she once wanted to escape from was now a luxury she could not even see.

Sitting in Lu Yan's study, looking at everything familiar around him, Shen Ruoyan imagined the scene when the young man was sitting here, casually picked up a book on the shelf, and suddenly a few pieces of paper fell out.

Shen Ruoyou picked it up and took a closer look and found that these pieces of paper were actually the title deeds of his shop!

Why are these things here at Lu Yan's place?

A guess arose in Shen Ruoyan's heart. As if she had found the last straw, Shen Ruoyan put the land deed back into the book and hurried out with the book.

The carriage arrived in front of a bamboo forest on the outskirts of Beijing. Qin'er followed Shen Ruoyan and got out of the carriage. When she saw the words Zuiyue Tower, she was stunned.

With some excitement, Qin'er asked in a low voice: "Miss, what are we doing here?"

Shen Ruoyan didn't answer, and took Qin'er through the bamboo forest with familiarity.

During the day, Zuiyue Tower was very quiet, and not a single person could be found in the luxurious garden. It was as if everyone had disappeared out of thin air.

Shen Ruoyan walked around for a long time before she saw a little girl cleaning the house.

"Is there an elder brother named Wei here?" Shen Ruoyan stepped forward and asked straight to the point.

The little girl put down her work and repeated: "Brother Wei?"

Then he shook his head again, indicating that there was no such person here.

Shen Ruoyan was unwilling to give in and continued to ask: "He is responsible for steering the boat in the lake. He is about 27 or eight years old. He is a head taller than me. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looks a bit naive, but he is very skilled..."

The little girl looked at the woman who was gesticulating anxiously in front of her with confusion. She had been working in Zuiyue Tower for several years, but she had never seen such a smart and bright beauty. Even she, a woman, couldn't bear to look away when she saw it. .

If this girl could come to their building, she would definitely be the oiran.

Shen Ruoyan almost described all the characteristics that could be described, but she didn't know that the little girl's thoughts had already wandered to other places.

"The people in charge of the boats in the lake are all boat girls. How can there be men to hold the boats?" The little girl came back to her senses and said truthfully, "Did you remember it wrong?"

"you sure?"

"Of course, I know everyone in Zuiyue Tower, and there is indeed no man you mentioned." The little girl answered with certainty.

After saying thank you, Shen Ruoyan returned with Qin'er without success. She sat on the carriage and frowned as a thinker. She clearly remembered that when Lu Yan took her to Zuiyue Tower to play, it was Brother Wei who drove the boat every night, and Brother Wei also personally admitted that he was working in Zuiyue Tower, how could he not have this person?

The confusion in her heart was getting bigger and bigger. Shen Ruoyan closed her eyes and rubbed her temples, constantly calculating various possibilities in her mind.

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with Brother Wei?" Seeing Shen Ruoyan closing her eyes in deep thought, Qin'er couldn't help but ask.

Shen Ruoyan opened her lips and replied: "There is nothing wrong with him."

"Ah?" The little girl was startled by her young lady's words, and her mind was wide open. "Is Brother Wei a wanted criminal by the court? No wonder he has so many shops! Could it be that they are all ill-gotten gains? Miss, If we rent his shop, will the government officials find out about us?"

Shen Ruoyan patted Qin'er's leg, interrupted the little girl's endless thoughts, and raised her voice to the driver outside: "Change to Xuanwu Street."

Stepping into the door of the clothing store, Shen Ruoyan saw the muscular figure at the counter at a glance. Before she could speak, Qin'er beside her was already one step ahead of her and shouted: "Brother Wei!"

This roar filled his Dantian with anger and came out of his throat, almost frightening Wei Xu out of his soul.

He just returned to the capital today and the first thing he did was come to the clothing store. Unexpectedly, he was bumped into by Shen Ruoyan just after standing there for a while.

Shen Ruoyan stepped forward, blocked in front of Wei Xu, and asked directly: "Where is Lu Yan?"

Wei Xu was a little dazed by her beautiful eyes, and he quickly denied: "Ah? What? Why are you asking me where the young master is? How can I know where the young master is?"

The girl raised her eyebrows high, "Young Master?"

Wei Xu wanted to give himself a slap in the face. He was running around, hadn't slept for several days, and his mind was full of mush. Why did he blurt out this?

With a look from Shen Ruoyan, Chun Niang and Qin'er hurriedly walked around Wei Xu, raised their chins, and blocked the person. It was clear that they didn't want to walk out of this door today without explaining the matter clearly.

Being surrounded by a few weak women, Wei Xu felt more terrifying than facing thousands of troops. He struggled for a second and honestly confessed: "Master Lu is the young master of my family."

Shen Ruoyan wanted to know more than that. She took out the book from her sleeve, shook out the land deed inside, and said to Wei Xu expressionlessly: "Tell me specifically what the situation is?"

When Wei Xu saw these evidences, he was immediately defeated, "The young master arranged for me to rent these shops to you at a low price."

Lu Yan actually knew that he was secretly opening a store to do business?

Shen Ruoyan suppressed the shock in her heart and continued to ask calmly: "What other things are you hiding from me?"

Wei Xu gave up resistance long ago and told everything in one breath, "Young master knew that Miss Shen you wanted to open a shop, so he found several shops and compared them, and finally bought this shop and rented it to you at a low price.

There used to be a few gangsters on this street who usually went door to door to collect protection fees. The young master asked me to deal with them in advance. After removing all obstacles for the shop, the young master often sent people to pretend to be customers to make purchases. Materials, take care of your business.

Seeing that your shop's business is getting better and better, many competitors have made malicious attacks on this clothing shop, and the young master has secretly dealt with them one by one for you. "

Wei Xu's voice became softer and softer, and finally he glanced at Chun Niang again, "I also did what happened to Shopkeeper Yu."

After hearing this, Shen Ruoyan pursed her lips into a straight line.

No wonder he started his business so smoothly. He thought it was his own ability, but now he realizes that it was all Lu Yan's credit.
